The proliferation ability of glioma cells was determined by MTT assay; the invasion and migration abilities were determined by transwell assays. Compared with normal brain tissues, the expression of miR-575 in glioma tissue cells was significantly up-regulated (P < 0.001). The survival rate of patients in the miR-575 high expression group was significantly lower than that in the low expression group (P = 0.020).

The poor prognosis is attributable to its high recurrence rate, caused in part by the development of resistance to chemotherapy. Receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140) is a very versatile coregulator of nuclear receptors and transcription factors. Although many of the pathways regulated by RIP140 contribute significantly to cancer progression, the function of RIP140 in GBM remains to be determined. In this study, we found that higher RIP140 expression was associated with prolonged survival in patients with newly diagnosed GBM. Intracellular RIP140 levels were increased after E2F1 activation following temozolomide (TMZ) treatment, which in turn modulated the expression of E2F1-targeted apoptosis-related genes. Overexpression of RIP140 reduced glioma cell proliferation and migration, induced cellular apoptosis, and sensitized GBM cells to TMZ. Conversely, knockdown of RIP140 increased TMZ resistance. Taken together, our results suggest that RIP140 prolongs the survival of patients with GBM both by inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and migration and by increasing cellular sensitivity to chemotherapy. This study helps improve our understanding of glioma recurrence and may facilitate the development of more effective treatments.</p>","PeriodicalId":19304,"journal":{"name":"NeuroMolecular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s12017-021-08667-x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39051533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Whether this modulation leads to an induction or suppression of inflammatory mediators is still controversially discussed. Most studies of the influence of electrical stimulation on inflammation were conducted in rodent models with direct current stimulation and/or long impulses, both of which differ from the pattern in DBS. This makes comparisons with the clinical condition difficult. We established an in-vitro model that simulated clinical stimulation patterns to investigate the influence of electrical stimulation on proliferation and survival of human astroglial cells, microglia, and differentiated neurons. We also examined its influence on the expression of the inflammatory mediators C-X-C motif chemokine (CXCL)12, CXCL16, CC-chemokin-ligand-2 (CCL)2, CCL20, and interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 by these cells using quantitative polymerase chain reaction. In addition, protein expression was assessed by immunofluorescence double staining. In our model, electrical stimulation did not affect proliferation or survival of the examined cell lines. There was a significant upregulation of CXCL12 in the astrocyte cell line SVGA, and of IL-1β in differentiated SH-SY5Y neuronal cells at both messenger RNA and protein levels. Our model allowed a valid examination of chemokines and cytokines associated with inflammation in human brain cells.

Numerous studies have established that neuronal calcium homeostasis is perturbed in AD. Recently, transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) channels, a non-selective calcium-permeable channel, have been investigated in several diseases. However, the role of the TRPV2 channel has not been investigated in AD yet. In this study, intracerebroventricular administration of β-amyloid (10 μg) to Sprague Dawley rats resulted in cognitive impairment which was evident from the assessment of cognitive tests. Also, TRPV2 mRNA and protein expression were found to be upregulated, while the expression of Ca<sup>2+/</sup>calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (p-CaMKII-Thr-286), glycogen synthase kinase 3β (p-GSK-3β-Ser-9), cAMP response element-binding protein (p-CREB-Ser-133), and postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD-95) were downregulated in the hippocampus of β-amyloid-treated animals. Even, β-amyloid-treated animals showed upregulation of mRNA level of calcium buffering proteins (parvalbumin and calsequestrin) and calcineurin A (PPP3CA) in the hippocampus. Acetylcholinesterase activity was also increased in the cortex of β-amyloid-treated animals. Three-week treatment with tranilast showed improvement in the cognitive parameters which was associated with a decrease in TRPV2 expression and AChE activity. Additionally, an increase in the protein expression of p-CaMKII, p-GSK-3β, p-CREB and PSD-95 in the hippocampus was found. Downregulation in the mRNA level of calcium buffering proteins (parvalbumin and calsequestrin) and calcineurin A in the hippocampus was also seen. These results reveal the importance of TRPV2 channels in the β-amyloid-induced cognitive deficits and suggest TRPV2 as a potential target for AD.</p>","PeriodicalId":19304,"journal":{"name":"NeuroMolecular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s12017-021-08675-x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39159845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
